Stocking Advice

[Jungle777]

My advice would be to work out what fish you simply must have and then work from there. For me it was German Blue Rams Clown loaches are lovely but your right they can grow very large about 25cm I think max?

Jungle777 do your cardinals just stay in one place ? i have 15 of them and there never away from one of my swords.

No my cardinals venture all over really, they shoal now and then but I thought another 8 or so (giving me 16) would look better. I'm just worried i dont have room? I was also considering some more Rams but I'm no sure how many should be kept together? I presume mine are the same as your 'German Blue Rams' as mine are flurescent blue - the male is a lot bigger than the 2 females...

would be more appropriate if you made your own thread for your tank/stocking. Otherwise it gets a bit confusing answering two peoples questions in one.

i bought 2 keyhole cichlids and a german ram yesterday to go with my sailfin molly and my 6 red eyes think i want some neons in the next few weeks would that be overstocking?

 

[mark4hay]

anyone know how many neons i could add?

 

[Harlequins]

Depending what other fish you want to add...but i think 10 neons would go in quite nicely

i thought 10 neons as well would there be room for any more fish after that?
